Cats And Dogs Away
« r__ * .1 ii.
The problem of keeping cats and
dogs out of flower1 beds, shrubbery,
and in general where they are not
wanted, appears solved by the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Simply spray the flowers, shrubs,
or premises with a dilute niefftine
sulphate spray and cats and dogs
will avoid them, thb department says.
The spray is harmless to plants and
is very offensive to animals. It is
Widely used against sucking insects.
As cats and dog* have a keener sense
of smell than humans, they can smell
of the otter.
